Always great information! I love how you have links to what you used (in case we missed it while you were talking) and don’t assume we have previous knowledge of whatever medium you are using (especially liked the stamp school series!) Thank you!

How many cards and envelopes can fit in the box and are there any discount codes for PaperMart? Loved this project!

that would depend on how embellished you made the cards but I could put 8 of these in the box. There are no discount codes for papermart, their prices are always rock bottom and the quality is very high.

These boxes are so cute and I love the mosaic. Two questions: Where did you get the stencil? and Is there a reason you didn’t paint the box before you removed the stencil? Looks like it would have been easier and less chance of getting out of line.

you can replace the stancil foa painting but do net the stencil paste dry with the stencil in place or it might not come off.
